Thanks Ivet, the new iterated design looks impressive especially some of the 
new graphical elements.

+1 to moving forward with the proposed design. Let's collect any further 
feedback and ideas from the community and if there are no objections go ahead 
with updating the preview/staging site (https://cloudstack.staged.apache.org/) 
and eventually publishing the website.

Just to be clear on the CMS integration - the ASF infra has declined supporting 
a 3rd party git-based CMS that can be used with the project website. This is 
such a shame as I had created PoCs with some rather okay-ist git-based CMS such 
as Netlify-CMS, TinaCMS and SpinalCMS which would give similar UI-based 
workflow like the old Roller-based blog did.

Nevertheless, for the purposes of publishing blogs the new Github-based 
document/markdown editor/CMS is fair enough and now allows uploading of assets 
(images, files etc.) and blog that can be edited directly for any committer 
incl. PMC members logged into Github and upon saving such changes the website 
is published by an automatic Github action that builds and published the 
websites. Unfortunately, any non-committer would need to follow the PR 
workflow. I had this documented at 
https://cloudstack.staged.apache.org/website-guide/ that I can help further 
update in this regard.



Thank you Ivet and Rohit, this is looking great! Much better then we had.

I have no real comments not objections to do. It's a great improvement 
over what we currently have.

Subject: [DISCUSS] New Design for the Apache CloudStack Website

Hello,

I would like to start a discussion on the design of the Apache CloudStack 
Website and to propose a new design for it.

As we all know, the website has not been changed for years in terms of design 
and information. The biggest issue we know we have is that the website is not 
showing the full potential of CloudStack. In addition to it during discussions 
with many community members, I have noted the following issues:
- the existing website design is old-school
- the current homepage does not collect enough information to show CloudStack's 
strengths
- current website design is missing images from the ACS UI and cannot create a 
feel for the product in the users
- the website has issues on a mobile device
- we lack any graphic and diagrams
- some important information like how to download is not very visible

I collected a lot of feedback during last months and want to propose a new up 
to date design for the website, which is attached below. The new design will 
bring:
- improved UX
- look and feel corresponding to the CloudStack's capabilities and strengths
- more graphical elements, diagrams
- better branding
- more important information, easily accessible for the potential users

I hope you will like the new design – all feedback welcome. Once we have the 
design finalised, we will use Rohit’s proposal previously of a CMS, which is 
easy to edit.
